New Harmony Register in New Harmony, Indiana

Gas and Ends and Oddities From Many Lands

A long jumble of clipped notes reports Carlyle age eighty, a piano diet, six Louisville newspapers, and coinages for manners and names. Garibaldi’s grandson Rome. Eliot paid thirty five thousand dollars for a novel. Townsend wins two thousand in Kerr’s election pools. Various quips about Tweed, Hall, Stanleys friend Miesa, and a London paper’s take on Jefferson. Notes on sheep in Kansas, the slave power, American goods in China, and a Pullman car trial in Hoagland. Mentions of Gillem death near Nashville, Turkish bonds, Persian devils, Colfax, and a prophesied female marriage odds. Also sweeping claims about population, power, and a North Carolina editor in mourning, with temperance Dame Mother Stewart sailing to Hagland and Boston women on a school committee ticket. An editor in Carson, Nevada making gambling implements, and a Spurgeon Tabernacle fee with pew snub.
